Hi there everyone! I am thrilled to be hosting my first Challenge with Crafting by Designs this week. I've been on the team for a couple of months now and enjoying it immensely, loving the talent in this group of ladies, it is a joy to be here. And this week we have one of my favourite artist's sponsoring us, Ike of Ike's Art.

This week's challenge is a Colour Challenge and we are looking for you to create something primarily Red and Black in colour. You can, of course, use neutrals - white, kraft, skin tones. We would like if you limited your use of other colours but as long as your project is mainly red and black and you follow the other challenge rules, you could win a $15 gift certificate
from our fabulous sponsor. We'd also love you to check out their new challenge blog

Before I show you the inspiration from the team, can I invite you to join us on our Facebook page if you haven't already found us, come and hit 'Like' and we will keep you up to date with the Crafting by Designs team and hopefully have more inspiration there to help you get crafting!

Now without further ado here are the inspirational projects from the Crafting by Designs team using images from Ike's Art. You can visit the lovely ladies' blogs and leave them some love too and don't forget to link up your creations below. Thanks! Mo xxx

I am a paper
crafter who has always had an interest in color and design, especially in
nature.
Painting with watercolor or oils, using color makes me happy. However, it's
more fun when done with some company. That's the reason I teach paper crafting classes
and help out at our local community card making club.

I make my home is
central Florida, where I live with my husband George and out two cats, Tinker
and Nick. I have three terrific daughters and five adorable grands. They live
up north…I miss them!
